[PATCH 3.18 008/120] net: hp100: fix always-true check for link up state

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 11 2018 - 11:36:47 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a7f38002fb69b44f8fc622ecb838665d0b8666af ]

The operation ~(p100_inb(VG_LAN_CFG_1) & HP100_LINK_UP) returns a value
that is always non-zero and hence the wait for the link to drop always
terminates prematurely. Fix this by using a logical not operator instead
of a bitwise complement. This issue has been in the driver since
pre-2.6.12-rc2.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#114157 ("Logical vs. bitwise operator")
